Play Nice

Decent at pleasantries

My heart's in my chest

My P's and Q's on my sleeves

But I ain't no fool and I ain't naive

You can't tell right from wrong

So I had to write it down

For you in a fucking love song

I ain't no fool and I ain't naive

You say play nice

Babe, I ain't nice

When I'm told to be

And you like your women sweet

Dolled up and gagged in dirty magazines

Well, I ain't no silent doll and I ain't that sweet

You say play nice

Babe, I stay nice

Until I need to be mean

You think I'm nice

That's a dirty lie

You've been told to believe

That I'm sugar, syrup, saccharine

That I'm all lavender and tangerine

But if you tell me to smile, please

I'll make sure to show you my teeth

And play nice

Babe, I'm as nice as a guillotine

You say play nice

Babe, I'm as nice as a gasoline

You say play nice

You say play nice

Play nice, play nice

Play nice, play nice

Play nice, play nice
